basically customs are the thought police right-wing fruitloops claim exist in the uk but they never complain about them because they think they keep foreigns out.

but hmrc (seizing your car cause you had a copy of nuts in your glovebox) is separate from the ukba (keeping out dirty foreigners) and its also a branch of the treasury (takin your hard-earned pounds sterling and giving it to aforementioned dirty foreigners) so youd think theyd be all over it

i remember watching a documentary about the customs at dover and whenever they decided someone coming back from france had "too much" wine and it might not be just for them they seized all the wine and the car and everything inside it. ouch.

i took the ferry from dover and the british officer in the customs house gave a little speech with instructions in the most atrocious french possible

The Pebble smartwatch is finally shipping. It's been a long journey to this point, but despite some lingering "kinks and issues" that will be ironed out soon, the company is today dispatching the first wave of watches to its earliest Kickstarter backers. Unfortunately the total number of shipments is lower than Pebble first anticipated; less than 500 watches are going out today. Why the small figure? As it races to move outbound units to its fulfillment center, Pebble says the process has been "held up by documentation at the airport."

There's also a bit of bad news for iPhone users. It seems the Pebble iOS app won't be available for download as these initial shipments arrive. "We submitted 2 weeks ago and have been responding to reviewer feedback," reads an update on Kickstarter posted today. To be clear, you'll still have access to all of Pebble's core functionality like notification alerts and music controls. But you won't be able to install new watchfaces or firmware updates until Apple gives Pebble the stamp of approval. The Android app will be available in Google Play as planned tomorrow.

i love that reddit thinks male feminists are all white knights.

actually, they probably think that any man who thinks of women as anything more than sex objects are being white knights.

then they wonder why women wont gently caress 'em. makes u think.

this is my watch. i probably will not get a smartwatch until they make one that is pretty much the same size (including thickness), as durable, and has a battery i can go without charging for at least a month.

i want my smartwatch to be like a regular loving watch... but smart.

obviously it'd be ideal if the screen took up the whole face of the watch. i'm not saying i want a 1x2cm segmented lcd on my smartwatch.

considering that i have to separate egg yolks maybe once a month, tops, im fine just cracking the egg into my hands over a bowl. gotta get your hands messy if youre gonna cook good, brah.

this thing also looks like it could be really unreliable and end up leaving some yolk behind in the whites, which is fine if youre just trying to be health conscious but will ruin your meringue/soufflé/angel food cake

unironic

do the thing where you chart all sorts of data and allow us to stretch and mold those graphs with deceptive scaling so that we can do poo poo like 'prove' to people that the number of gun murders is directly proportional to soybean futures or whatever

i would use this all the time, you would get notoriety, you'd get to massage and gently caress with data, and you'd be under the comforting umbrella of satire, meaning that people might not crawl up your rear end quite so bad.

allow me to find a graph on your site, drag start/end lines on it, and have your magical mystery machine find the five closest curve fits, from which i could select the most hilarious

end serious
iI'd use the poo poo out of this

at that price there's no way that thing could ever support thunderbolt and even then if it did it could just be 1 cable instead of both

quote:

Is the MacDock compatible with Thunderbolt?.

No, at least not yet. Thunderbolt technology is in very early stages and it is very expensive to get a licence for it. Instead we have decided to transfer USB 3.0 as it has a comparable data transmission speed and it’s more widely used.

so at least theyre being realistic
